[edit] Password Magic

No evidence that this meets WP:SOFT, author's only contrib, likely WP:SPAM VoiceOfReason 15:19, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - That seems like unnotable software. If every programmer who ever created a program they wanted to sell, and had an article about it, we could rename wikipedia spam-a-pedia. Chris Kreider 15:26, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Almost certainly an advertisement for the software in question. -bobby 16:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - I use the program and it is good, but the article smacks of advertisement. --Kf4bdy ^{talk contribs} 18:06, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as WP:ADVERT for insufficiently notable software per WP:SOFTWARE and WP:CORP#Criteria for products and services. -- Satori Son 20:41, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
• Do not Delete - The company is notable. SDI has been writing software since 1968. The product is certainly as notable and no more advertising oriented than other password manager products that appear in Wikipedia: AES Password Manager, KeePass, Password Safe, Roboform. SDI is certainly more notable than the other companies because it has been in business longer and markets more than one or two products. Perhaps the product user that commented could give the article a more objective feel. --LGJ56 21:24, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment - Above is from the article's creator. This is a very common argument made by article creators in AfDs: "This other non-notable subject has an article, why not this one?" If the other software you mention fails WP:SOFT, the remedy is to delete their articles as well. VoiceOfReason 14:36, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete reads looks and feels like a ad. TheRanger 22:47, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
